• Mr. Faron Hrynewich
• Mr. James Malainey

Courses and pathways are defined by the mathematics that business, industry, and post- secondary institutes indicated that students need.

Why Pathways?

• There would be too much overlap of

concepts to split the content into 3 courses

• Simplifies the prerequisite course options

for grade 10 students

• Taking both courses leaves all doors open

for grade 11

• The intent is for student to select a

pathway for grade 11

Why are there only 2 grade 10 Math courses?

• Yes, but they need to have the prerequisite

pathway courses

• Because the content of courses in each

pathway is unique, a course from one pathway will not provide the background knowledge necessary to be successful in another pathway

Can students change pathways?

Workplace and Apprenticeship Mathematics This pathway is designed to provide students with the mathematical understandings and critical-thinking skills identified for entry into the majority of trades and for direct entry into the work force.

The Pathways Explained

Workplace and Apprenticeship Mathematics Topics included measurement, geometry, trigonometry, financial math (number sense), algebra, statistics and probability. Students who enjoy hands-on work would be well-suited for this pathway.

The Pathways Explained

Foundations of Mathematics This pathway is designed to provide students with the mathematical understandings and critical- thinking skills identified for post-secondary studies in programs that do not require the study of theoretical calculus such as the humanities, fine arts, social sciences, and nursing.

The Pathways Explained

Foundations of Mathematics Topics include financial mathematics, geometry, measurement, number sense, logical reasoning, relations and functions, statistics and probability.

The Pathways Explained

Pre-calculus This pathway is designed to provide students with the mathematical understandings and critical-thinking skills identified for entry into post-secondary programs that require the study of theoretical calculus and those pursuing careers in science-related areas (Engineering, Business, Medicine and other Science fields).

The Pathways Explained

Pre-calculus Topics include algebra and number sense, measurement, relations and functions, trigonometry, and permutations, combinations and binomial theorem.

The Pathways Explained

What to Consider When Choosing a Pathway

Although the math pathway decision will be based on factors unique to each student, we recommend that each student and their parents reflect on the following four factors before making this selection:

• Student’s future education plans
• Student’s future career plans
• Student’s interest in math
• Student’s performance in Math 9 and 10
• Students who did very poorly in Math 9 should

consider not taking Foundations and PreCalc 10

• The Ministry has designed the PreCalculus

pathway for 20% of the student population

Post-Secondary Requirements

Since entrance requirements are set by the post- secondary institutions and not the school division, they are beyond our control and may be subject to change. It is the responsibility of the student and parents to check course and entrance requirements with specific post-secondary institutions of interest to them. MyBluePrint.ca is a good tool for tracking grad requirements and for looking at Post-secondary options. It is our intent to provide families assistance in locating these requirements.
